Marianne will demonstrate how to simplify and extract the essential information from a reference photo to create an abstracted version of the scene. While working with the elements of design, the emphasis will be on composition and value relationships to convey the essence, rather than the details. This is also a wonderful opportunity to be creative with colour to communicate your impressions.  Modeling paste will be used to incorporate texture into our second painting. Reference pictures will be provided and feel free to bring your own.
